Kristen Stewart Says Trump’s Obsession with Her Was “F--king Crazy”

At the Sundance Film Festival on Friday, Kristen Stewart finally addressed something we’ve all been dying to hear her thoughts on. No, it wasn’t whether she thinks the robot uprising is imminent. Back in 2012, Donald Trump had some dating advice for Stewart’s then-boyfriend Robert Pattinson after news surfaced that she’d cheated on him.

(Trump continued tweeting about the pair weeks later, saying he hoped Pattinson had taken his advice, followed by another, subsequent tweet warning, again, that Stewart would return to her cheating ways.)

In Variety’s studio at Sundance, where Stewart is promoting her directorial debut Come Swim as part of Refinery29’s Shatterbox Anthology, Variety asked her about Trump, who had just been sworn in as president.

“As a young woman,” Variety said, “there’s a lot of other young women that look up to you now, and they’re scared now with our new president.”

“As they should be,” Stewart said.

When asked if she had any advice for the women out there, Stewart said, “I’ve never been the most politically charged person, but at this point, it’s not political, it’s f--king so humanitarian.”

When Variety asked her about Trump’s tweets, Stewart laughed and said that she thought it was weird, but at the time he was just a reality star. “He was mad at me a couple years ago! He was really obsessed with me a couple years ago, which was f--king crazy, like what? I can’t even understand it.”
